Enkeleid Dobi (born 23 May 1975) is an Albanian professional football manager and former player who is currently in charge of Górnik Polkowice. He played for clubs in Albania, Croatia, Slovenia, Poland and France, as well as the Albania national team.
Club career[edit]
Dobi played as forward for NK Varteks in the Croatian First League.[1] He played for Zagłębie Lubin and Górnik Zabrze in the Polish Ekstraklasa during 2004.[2]
International career[edit]
He scored the second goal in his country's 2–0 victory against Bosnia and Herzegovina in November 1995, in what was Bosnia's first official match as an independent nation after affiliating with FIFA.[3] It was also his debut for Albania and he earned a total of 6 caps, scoring 1 goal. His final international was a February 2003 friendly match against Vietnam.[4]

On 30 July 2020, he signed a one-year contract with Polish I liga club Widzew Łódź.[7] With ten regular season games left to play, and Widzew placed one point short of a promotion play-off-qualifying position, he was dismissed on 13 April 2021.[8]
